    Hello!

    I'm Tin and it looks like you can't use the Microsoft Edge browser. Usually, this problem is caused by corrupted system files. Let me help you figure it out.

    Follow these steps:

    Please click the "Start" menu, enter "CMD", right-click and select "Run as administrator", then paste the following command and press enter.

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    Please wait for it to finish and repair the system files.

    When you are done, paste the following command and press enter.

    sfc /scannow

    Please wait for it to complete.

    Check if the problem persists.

    1. Let's try reinstalling the Microsoft Edge browser.

    Please open Settings, then tap Apps, find Microsoft Edge and tap the three dots. Please uninstall it.

    Open the Microsoft Store app from the Start menu or taskbar.

    Type "Edge" in the search box, then select "Microsoft Edge", click "Install", and please follow the prompts.

    Please check if the problem persists.

    Thanks!

    Tin
